Hummingbird migration starts in July and continues well into the fall. Next week we're starting our rigorous 5-day-a-week banding schedule. Hope I can keep up.
At the oasis this morning I saw lots of juvenile hummers, but no migrants yet. Here's a juvenile Black-chinned male.
And a juvenile male Lucifer...
Today is another perfect day and no pesky insects.
I have lived in the Christmas Mountains since 1976, and started my oasis in 1996. For visiting instructions contact me at christmasmountainsoasis@gmail.com
if you are a birder or naturalist. No minors unless pre-approved by me and are avid birders. No pets.(When emailing, be sure to get all 5 s's in the email address or I won't get it.)
